SUMMARY:Baby-Ready Pets
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, thousands of animals are turned into shelters by parents concerned about how their pet may affect the health and safety of their new baby. Any pet can have undesirable\, although natural reactions to a new baby. New sounds\, smells\, and activities surrounding an infant may cause a pet to see the baby as competition\, prey\, or even a toy. \nBaby-Ready Pets offers preparation and assistance to help expectant families prepare their home and their pets for the arrival of the new baby and to make sure that it is a safe and (relatively) stress-free experience for all. This seminar is based on a program created by the Providence Animal Rescue League and the Rhode Island SPCA\, and has been endorsed by the ASPCA. The Animal Welfare League of Arlington’s staff will present Baby-Ready Pets for expectant parents in a two-hour workshop at the League. \nAfter the program\, participants may call or e-mail follow-up questions if they need additional support. Participants will also receive helpful handouts and a CD of baby sounds to help desensitize their pets to the sounds of the new arrival. This is a HUMAN-ONLY class\, please leave your pets at home. Baby-Ready Pets sessions are from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington\, 2650 S. Arlington Mill Drive. \nThere is no fee for the class\, but donations are welcome. Reservations are required and space is limited. \nTo see all available class dates and register for a class\, please visit our Baby-Ready Pets Registration Page.

SUMMARY:Kitten College Foster Info Session
DESCRIPTION:The Animal Welfare League of Arlington has opened the region’s first neonatal kitten nursery in the Washington\, DC Metropolitan Area!\nJoin us on May 3rd from 6:30PM-8:00PM to learn more about becoming a Kitten College foster! \nThe Animal Welfare League of Arlington is one of the only municipal shelters in the nation that takes in kittens from other jurisdictions. In fact\, AWLA takes in just a very few kittens from Arlington County\, thanks to our highly successful trap-neuter-return program that has greatly reduced the population of feral cats. Instead\, the Kitten College answers the needs of shelters and groups in DC\, Maryland\, Virginia and West Virginia. We take in orphaned and sick kittens that require bottle-feeding and specialized care; some remain in the College for intensive care\, while others go to our expansive network of foster caregivers. \nDuring the session we will cover fostering basics\, policies and procedures\, and teach potential fosters how to bottle feed\, about common neonatal kitten health issues\, and more! \nThe Kitten College opened in late July 2017 and by year’s end had taken in 356 kittens ages newborn to eight weeks; during the entire previous year (2016) AWLA took in 92 kittens of the same age. In just five months the College tripled the number of kittens saved while also increasing their survival rate!  So far in 2018 we are on track to reach our goal of saving 1\,000 kittens! We hope you’ll join us and help us save even more lives this year!

SUMMARY:Baby-Ready Pets Class
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, thousands of animals are turned into shelters by parents concerned about how their pet may affect the health and safety of their new baby. Any pet can have undesirable\, although natural reactions to a new baby. New sounds\, smells\, and activities surrounding an infant may cause a pet to see the baby as competition\, prey\, or even a toy. \nBaby-Ready Pets offers preparation and assistance to help expectant families prepare their home and their pets for the arrival of the new baby and to make sure that it is a safe and (relatively) stress-free experience for all. This seminar is based on a program created by the Providence Animal Rescue League and the Rhode Island SPCA\, and has been endorsed by the ASPCA. The Animal Welfare League of Arlington’s staff will present Baby-Ready Pets for expectant parents in a two-hour workshop at the League. \nAfter the program\, participants may call or e-mail follow-up questions if they need additional support. Participants will also receive helpful handouts and a CD of baby sounds to help desensitize their pets to the sounds of the new arrival. This is a HUMAN-ONLY class\, please leave your pets at home. Baby-Ready Pets sessions are from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington\, 2650 S. Arlington Mill Drive. \nThere is no fee for the class\, but donations are welcome. Reservations are required and space is limited. \nTo see all available class dates and register for a class\, please visit our Baby-Ready Pets Registration Page.

SUMMARY:AWLA Animal Ambassadors: Foster Program Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington on April 14th to learn more about becoming an AWLA Animal Ambassador! Animal Ambassadors is a new part of our current Foster Program that focuses on getting adoption ready dogs (and sometimes cats!) out of the kennels and into foster homes so that their personalities can shine! \nAnimal Ambassadors is a little different from our regular Foster Program; since these pets will be available for adoption from their foster home\, foster families will be an active\, integral part of finding a permanent family for their foster pets. \nDuring our info session we’ll go over fostering basics\, training philosophies\, and how to market your foster pet and help find them a new home! Of course\, AWLA will provide all supplies and medical care you will need for your foster pet. \nWe hope you’ll join us to learn more about this brand new program! This info session is free to attend but we do require registration:\nView Event

SUMMARY:Pet Loss Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Our pets are important members of the family. They are devoted companions who give us their unconditional love and acceptance. For a pet caregiver\, the loss of a companion animal can be one of life’s most difficult experiences. When we lose a beloved friend\, it often helps by sharing our feelings with others who have also experienced a similar loss. \nFor more than 25 years\, Kathy Reiter has helped pet owners cope with their loss through Pet Loss Support Group meetings at local shelters. \nKathy is recognized as the area’s leading authority on pet loss. Kathy is a psychiatric social worker with a specialty in grief and bereavement. She has appeared on Good Morning America\,CBS News with Dan Rather and PBS. Kathy has also been featured in The Washington Post\, Better Homes and Gardens\, Good Housekeeping and other widely-circulated magazines. \nKathy was instrumental in establishing the hospice movement in the United States and was directly responsible for the construction of the first hospice in Arlington\, VA. While the Arlington hospice was being built\, Kathy’s beloved cat\, Prince\, was diagnosed with a terminal illness. While being experienced in human loss\, Kathy was now faced with impending pet loss of her animal friend. Kathy turned for help\, for resources\, and yet found none. Through her own personal experience\, Kathy came to realize the need for pet loss support\, and generously offers her gentle support to anyone who is grappling with such a loss. \nThe support group will meet quarterly at 7:00 pm on the second Wednesday of January\, April\, July\, and October at the shelter. There is no charge to attend these meetings\, and all are welcome. No reservations are required.
